I'm a mathematician, historian and scientist. I use the above pen names on the web to avoid confusion with others who
have the same name as mine, including a member of Congress. The first is essentially my great grandfather's name. the other
combines the names of the writers of the Federalist Papers.

I'm a generalist. I switched from math and physics to history and social science in the sixties because politicians didn't
know how to find solutions to social problems. I have a B.A. in history and 100 hours of graduate study beyond an M.A. in
U.S. history including courses in other fields: political science, computer science, geography, urban planning, economics
and business.
